LOST WITH ALL ON BOARD.
q Steamer With a Grew of Thirty Lost eff
New Foundland.
A Steamer and Schooner Wrecked eff Sable
Island--Great Gales.

HALIFAX, n. s., May 3--The steamer JOAN
Knox, Capt. Brolly, from Glasgow for Mon
treal, founderod at the channel of Newfound-
land yesterday. All hands were lost.
The Boston Herald's st. Johns, n. f., spe-
cial says: The first new reached here this
afternoon OF an appalling marine disaster
that occurred at Southwest Channel harhor,
to the eastward Of Cape Ray, late Saturday
night. Shortly after midnight the inhabitants
Of the neighboring shore were aroused from
their slumbers by the sound Of q steamship
horn. Fastening TO the edge Of the water
they peared through the darkness, rain and
fog 10 locate the position OF the steamer.
Presently rockets were observed To shoot up
wards into the heavens III rapid succes sion.
The vessel was only about 400 yards from
land, but n heavy gale and tremendous sea
prevented boats being sent To the rescue.
Torches Of tar barrels were burDed along the
beach and bells sounded, IN order 10 give the
imperllled people an idea OF their position,
but beyond this 1t WAS absolutely impossible
To make any attempt to Aid the vessel. The
signals male On shore could be seen on
board the vessel. HeArt-rending cries from
those III distress were borne In on the gale.
About 2:30 O'Clock, after the alarm was first
given, the ship made . plunge and disap-
peared beneath the sea. The storm continued
till daybreak, when it subsidized sufficiently
to allow boats to put of to the
scene OF the nights catastrophe. Plenty
Of the wrecksge was found floating
about, from which the Inflated steamer was
found to be the John Knox, Capt. Brolly,
from Glasgow bound for Quebec with a cargo
Of iron, liquors and bricks. The bodies OF the
captain and fifteen OF the crew have been re-
covered, one OF the latter being identified By
a certificate OF discharge found IN the coat
pocket as that Of Fireman John Mcclure. As
the steamer had a crew Of about thirty, there
are over a dozen bodies yet missing. The
John Knox was an iron steamer, 1851 tons

and now | wish you would tell me, for
my own satisfaction, what sort of
stuff it is. How do YOU make il?
Manufactures - We take brown
sugar and boil it in a decoction of
green coffee. That gives it the taste
and the color of the Vermont article,
and in my judgment makes it much
superior.

WATERY MAINE.
The Floods Not Subsioing.-Damage Done
10 Bridges.


Advices from Bangor, Me, on Thursday,
say that the water remains at about the same
height. The bridge piers are being slowly
undermined. Last night the lressure at the
dam broke the connection rod of the main
pumps in the water works, completely dis
aiding the rotary. The pump which is kept
for emergencies is being used, bat only one
eighth OF the city's water supply is available.
All the elevators which are run by water or
steam have been shut down. The Maine road
officials think they will be unable to start a
train for ST John under two weeks. Tie
washouts at Costigan, Kingman and Mattawa
continue to grow larger. The houses
are starting from their foundations all along
the river, and thousands OF dollars worth Of
household property has been washed away,
causing much suffering Of families along the
bark. The farmers will be weeks behind
with their crops. All the trestie work sup
porting the railroad at StillH alter have been
torn way and the houses there have fioated
down the river.
Business Is suspended on the Bangor and
katahdin iron works road, where there are
many washouts. The Piscstaquis river rose
twenty-five feet, making the highways i'm
passabic. The new WOODEN mill dam and
most Of the great Campbell dam at Sanger.
vIlle have been washed away, suspending
20 operators FOR "A long time. Ia this city
some OF the houses are flooded and the fam
lies have been transferred ia boats to places
Of safety. Teachers and pupils In some OF
the schools have had to 90 pack and forth in
boats. The wooden mills and other factories
at Hartford are flooded and five stores have
been undermined and fell down from their
foundations causing great loss. Boats are
used To pass along the streets, and hardly a
building has escaped. A. Linn, the great
WOODEN mill owner Is the heaviest loser. His
damages will be over $50, 900. 1t is thought,
and .wo months will be required To get the
factory running again. A carload of mail
matter for provincial, eastern Maine ana
ArnOstook points, which was forwarded from
here 10 Portland yesterday To go to East
port and st. John, has been returned,
the steamer refusing TO take any but the most
important letter mail. Storehousts for mail

Nearly Fremont and Lincoln"

There are very few who remember
that the Republican ticket in 1856
came near being Fremont and Lincoln.
We quote as follows from the May in
stallment of Tl2 Century Life: How
ever picturesquely Fremont for the
moment loomed up rs the standard
bearer of the Republican party, future
historical interest centcrs upon the
second act of the Philadelphia conven-
ton. 1t shows us how strangely to
human wis Tom vibrate the delicately
balanced scafes of fate; or rather how
inscrutable and yet now unerring are
the far-reaching process of divine
providence. The principal candidate
having been selected without conten-
ton or delay. the convention proceed
ed to Il nomination for vice president.
On the first informal ballot William l..
Dayton of New Jersey received 80
votes and Abraham Lincoln of Illinois
10; the remaining votes being scatter
ed among thirteen other names. The
dominating thought of the conven-
ton being the assertion of principle
and not the promotion of men,
there was no further contest; and
though Mr.. Dayton had not received a
majority support, his nomination vas
nevertheless at once made unanimous.
Those who are familiar with the eccen-
tricities of nominating conventions
when liz this ~listless and drifting mood
know how easily an opportune speech
from some eloquent delegate or Il few
adroitly arranged delegation caucuses
might have reversed this result; and
imagination may not easily construct
the possible changes in history which a
successful campaign OF the ticket in
that form might have wrought. What
would have been the consequences to
America and humanity had the rebel
lion, even then being vaguely devised
by southern hotspurs, burst upon the
nation in the winter of 1856, with the
nations sword of commander-in-chief
IN the hand of the impulsive Fremont,
and Lincoln, inheritlng the patient
wariness and cool blood Of three gen.
erations OF pioneers and lndian-tight-
ers. welding only the powerless gavel
of vice-president2 But the hour of des-
/ tiny had not yet struck"
The authors publish the following in
a fOot-note:
"Mr. L. S. Van Dyke, son Of one Of
the delegates to Philadelphia, kindly
writes us: Nothing that Mr.. Lincoln
has ever written is more characteristic
than the following note from him to
my father just after the convention
not for publication, but merely rs q
private expression of his feelings to an
Old acquaintance:
S~PRINGRLELp, Ill.,, June -. 1856.
"HON. JOHN VAN DYKE.
"My Dear Sir: Allow me to thank
you for your kind notice of me in the
Philadelphia convention.
when yeu meet Judge Dayton pre-
sent my respects, and tell him | think
him 4 far better man than for the po-
sition he is in, and that l shall support
both him and Colonel Fremont most
cordially. Present my best respects to
Mrs. ", and believe me, Yours truly,
A. LINCOLN"
